showtime has no fights scheduled

[Da Machine]

Showtime as we have known it the last two years is done. Back to Showbox as there premiere boxing showing. They will probably have the occasional big fight.

Don't count on it. Also, if Mayweather does fight TBA on May 2 on PPV and Alvarez fights James Kirkland or anyone else on the same date on HBO, there will be more people who will pay to watch Mayweather fight TBA than there will be who watch Alvarez for free on HBO.

Canelo for free or Floyd vs TBA on PPV ..... unless its against Manny, for most that will be an easy one to pick! Especially if they are going to rerun Floyd vs Cotto. The first one was 5 years too late and there was no controversy in their first fight. Again, easiest decision ever for most people.

[MasterPlan]

Showtime has a fight schedule in Feb, Sammy Vasquez vs Emmanuel Lartey. And one in March, same date of the S.P.I.K.E. card.

Showtime has no fights?

Maybe that is why Wilder said that he will fight at least 4 times this year.

[Foreign Soil]

They're still recovering from overpaying for mismatches all year.

I think he has longer then a year. And I think investors are footing the bill.
I'm not saying Haymon & Espinoza arer friends and have each over for Thanksgiving dinner but think their business associates that are working together for their own gain.


your kind if proving my point, he's going to have 30 mil to make qaulity fights( probably stack the 2nd half of the year) not the rubbish that was force fed us last year. Haymons not going to leave 30 mil on the table unused . I think fights will be made and there going to be really good Id rather have 6-12 good stacked cards then 15-25 garbage ones.

Just give it some time. We"ll see soon enough.

i absolutely agree with you. 6 stacked cards is a great year! showtime only had the khan-alexander card that was ok but underperformed with the thurman snoozer. espinoza needs to stop being a cum rag and force haymon to give him quality or else spend elsewhere

[North Star]

thats true but their ties to haymon are somewhat unclear after the golden boy promotions settlement. oscar got to keep khan, matthysse and santa cruz. i haven't seen it clearly stated that they are still advised by haymon. oscar is looking to get them on hbo i'm sure and i think hbo would play ball with oscar if haymon is out of the picture

I agree. I think we will see a few of them on HBO.

[al-Xander]

Haymon is good for the sport doe.

[Boxing lives]

I agree. I think we will see a few of them on HBO.

well we found out matthysse is no longer a haymon piece. he will be a prominent piece for GBP. It will be interesting to see what happens with khan
